@mandrake70 My experience with ECT treatments is that there is some long term memory loss but it does come back. That was one of my concerns but went through treatments anyway because depression is so bad and medication resistant. Be patient with yourself.

@marjou Thanks. I am doing better with being patient with myself now that I am not dealing with my wife getting angry at me for forgetting something. I keep hoping it will get better. My short term is better now but I have a hard time remembering things from before the treatments. I really wish I hadn't been in the bad state I was or that the doctor I had then had suggested ketamine (not sure if that was available five years ago though.) Spilt milk I guess. Hope your depression is better now.
